Administrative Council Values
In 2024, the Administrative Council adopted five core values that will guide the Council’s decisions. We are committed to ensuring our deeds match our words and we will use these values, along with a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, as a tool for reflection and assessment going forward.
- Courageous Advocacy
We aim to improve every Lafayette employee’s experience by bringing topics of concern to senior leadership with resolve and honesty.
- Integrity in Action
We take accountability for our actions, follow through on our promises, and bring attention to campus grievances with respectful candor.
- Intentional Community
We recognize that each employee is more than their job title and we see value in investing our time and energy to build relationships and networks.
- Growth Mindset
We set and tackle our goals with optimism, assess challenges to our campus culture with curiosity, and imagine a future where all Lafayette community members experience both individual and collective growth during their time on campus.
- Responsible Transparency
We are committed to creating open and secure channels for communication that allow for timely information-sharing.
The Admin Council members currently have four key areas of focus, all working toward the common mission of improving the experience of Lafayette staff on an ongoing basis. Read more about the committees and their missions and values.
